India will resume their second innings at the overnight score of 190 for 4 against South Africa on fourth day of the fourth and final Cricket Test in Delhi today. Skipper Virat Kohli on 83 and Ajinkya Rahane with 52 were at the crease at stumps. Kohli and Rahane rescued India's innings from 57 for 4 and with a 133-run partnership for the fifth wicket, the duo pushed overall lead to 403 runs. This was first century stand of this series. For South Africa, pacer Morne Morkel bagged three wickets. Yesterday's play was called off little early because of bad light at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium. With two full days left in the game, India may bat till lunch today and try to rotate scoreboard quickly before declaring the innings. The visitors will then have to bat out of the skin to save another heavy defeat in the test series. Earlier, on day two, India had bundled out South Africa for a paltry 121 in their first innings in reply to India's 334. The hosts have already clinched the four Test series 2-nil, following wins at Mohali and Nagpur, while the second Test was washed out in Bengaluru.
